Hi,
in configure phase (on other platforms, I haven't looked at Windows) there is a setting:
--with-wx-version=2.9

If you can find something similar, that might help.

But I struggled (including discovering that vcbuild has been replaced with msbuild with incompatible switches...) with that stuff for a couple of days and gave up, and was hoping the wxWidgets binaries+headers would be the way to go. I am getting much further with this approach but still failing at the end.
